Texas King Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 OK, how about this matchup? Two pretty notable rock bands from the first half of 90's.I like both, but I give a nod to Pearl Jam! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ancient Ways Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I don't have a problem with the black crowed but pearl jam is the choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The less I say about what I think about the Black Crowes the better. Is it coz they are the jelly beans of life's essence? Does you dislike as they diabetically incline you to an avid sadness? One must appreciate what others doth like. Basically Black Crowes are bae 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J2112YYZ Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) What an odd combo. Two completely different bands. Edited December 29, 2016 by J2112YYZ 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket ignites Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Crowes are good, but Pearl Jam wins for me on the album "Ten" by itself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catherine Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I've only listened to The Black Crowes a little. Pearl Jam is by far my pick between these two. Sorry Blue J. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefox4000 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 To be fair......i just don't really like southern rock stuff. So not a fair match, lol Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket ignites Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 What an odd combo. Two completely different bands.True, but I don't think 2 bands have to be in the same exact box/realm to present an interesting matchup. They have the 90's angle going for them.

So not a fair match, lol Mick Me either with the exception of 70's Lynryd Skynyrd. One More From the Road is the only Skynyrd album you need. :smoke: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The Black Crowes? Seriously? Hard to Handle, She Talks to Angels and Remedy. Done. If ever there was a band the purchasing style of iTunes was made for, it's them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GabesCavesOfIce Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Ten and the even better Vs (aka five against one, which is reminds me of a certain TRF section, understatement) two excellent albums, also love Yield and Binaural. Something I'll never understand about PJ, they finished 4th in the rock hall fan voting. Their tix are impossible to get around here, among the toughest tix to score via TM, and extremely expensive. Never had such issues w Rush tix, yet they won their fan vote going away. Yeah! Also like the Crowes, saw them with Oasis and SpaceHog on the brotherly love tour. Great show. .

ReRushed Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I like John Lennon's metaphor for music as a chair. The blues is a chair you sit on. The Beatles made their own chair. The Black Crowes sat in a chair. The sound, the attitude, the image. It's not their chair. Pearl Jam made their own chair. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Black Cowes wrote great music. From the heart. Honestly ReRushed great music doesn't have to be innovative to be excellent and Black Crowes are one of the most outstanding bands I have ever come across. Just great song after great song. They made a lasting career and have many fans, and really, in all honesty Pearl Jam are great but they don't exactly have the most consistent discography. Black Crowes do. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas King Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 I don't even think Pearl Jam musically belong in a same line with bands Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains. Firstly they don't have nothing in common with metal, secondly they don't have nothing in common with punk rock as these other bands have. PJ is a band from the Seattle scene which is musically closest to the 70's American hard rock sound. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, my point isn't to persuade. Like what you like. I just find the Black Crowes to be a very derivative band. That doesn't necessarily mean I think they are a bad band. In fact, it's the contrary. I'll go so far as to say the Black Crowes are very good at what they do. I just find it very unoriginal. As for consistency, I'll leave that to one's own judgement and opinion. And I'll put Pearl Jam's discography up against anyone's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real question is how did that guy end up married to kate Hudson? That's the info I need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Never cared for Eddie Vedder's dour, self important act .. For an entertainer, he's up there with Bono The Black Crowes 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
